Stringfellow Elementary School recently hosted a pirate themed bookfair, ‘Bookaneer Bookfair’ and invited Katrina McIntosh — the wife of Moultrie Mayor Bill McIntosh and herself a retired teacher — to visit and read a fun, rhyming book, ‘Are Pirates Polite?’ to kindergarten students.

McIntosh delivered a wonderful story and message to students. The book by Corinne Demas and Artemis Roehrig features pirates’ questionable activities with their lead-by-example lessons in manners and was a fun way to celebrate a pirate-themed book fair.

The school said the book fair was well supported by parents, the  Kiwanis Club and community members, helping Stringfellow to reach their sales goal and enabling the media center to purchase books to encourage and support reading and learning.
